Overview

The Brad Harrison 8A4001-31 is a Micro-Change® (M12) single keyway 90° angle female connector designed for industrial automation and field device connectivity. This 4-pole connector features an A-code single keyway for correct polarization, preventing accidental misconnections in high-vibration or dynamic applications. The 90° angled design optimizes space utilization in tight enclosures, enabling efficient cable routing and installation in confined industrial environments. Key specifications include a PG7 cable fitting compatible with cable diameters from 3.30mm to 6.60mm, ensuring secure strain relief and IP67 ingress protection against dust and water immersion (NEMA 6 rated). The connector body is constructed from durable PUR material, with nickel-plated brass coupling nuts for corrosion resistance. Contacts are copper alloy with gold-over-nickel plating for reliable signal transmission, while a Viton® O-ring provides environmental sealing. This connector is ideal for connecting sensors, actuators, and other field devices in factory automation, process control systems, and general machinery applications. It supports standard M12 sensor cables and industrial Ethernet systems, making it a versatile solution for both power and signal transmission. The single-ended design simplifies integration into existing systems, reducing installation time and maintenance overhead. Compatible with Brad Harrison’s Micro-Change® A-code single-ended cordsets, this connector offers intermatability with 3-, 4-, and 5-pole versions for added flexibility. Its robust construction and IP67 rating make it suitable for harsh industrial environments, including those with exposure to cutting fluids, oils, or moderate flexing applications.
